eBird tip:

Fairmile is a quiet residential street.  The continuing presence of smiling
people with fancy optics standing around for long periods has unsettled
some residents and created friction with observers.  For the sake of the
homeowners and the positive reputation of our birding community, consider
skipping the Titmouse.  There will be another one. If you do report the
Tufted Titmouse, please use the newly created hot spot.  If you have
existing checklists, please consider merging with the new hotspot. The
stakeout pin is:  https://ebird.org/hotspot/L22251193
